\"\"<\/a>Parents, carers, grandparents and interested friends dusted off their old school bags and polished an apple for the teacher as they went back to school at both Minard and Furnace this week.\u00a0\u00a0 On Tuesday Minard hosted children\u2019s grown ups as they learnt maths skills alongside the pupils by plying interactive maths games and solving problems.\u00a0 Harley\u2019s mum said, \u201cIt was great fun!\u201d and all the grown-ups were impressed with the young people\u2019s skills.<\/p>\n

On Thursday it was the turn of Furnace\u2019s grown-ups.\u00a0 They learnt problem solving skills as well as using metaphors and similes in descriptive writing.\u00a0 \u201cI really enjoyed it, I think I kept up.\u201d Said Abbie\u2019s mum via the school\u2019s Facebook page, continuing, \u201cWe should have the next one in spring to give me time to revise!\u201d<\/p>\n

Over two \u2013thirds of the children in both schools brought a grown up to school this week, many of whom had taken time off work to join us.\u00a0 It was a great opportunity for parents and carers to see what the curriculum is all about and how we engage learners every day.\u00a0 This is the second time staff at the schools have held such and event and the next one is already pencilled in for later in the school year.<\/p>\n
